The simple catalog layout and graphical interface is easy to understand and well categorized. It is similar to their website layout. Howeverthe navigation in the app is a bit confusing at times. The navigation tools are at the bottom right of the corner of the screen which is awkward locations. It also doesn’t work half the time. Every other app has it at the top left of the screen. The app could benefit from having a toolbar or ribbon for easier navigation. For every hardware folder you click onit should make a new tab showing the category name every time one is clicked on. Some hardware items have many subcategories and it would be nice to see the path I used to get to a particular item. Some other things to note is it is a little buggylike the screen would shift slightly for some reason. And occasionally it would freeze and not respond to touchforcing me to restart the app and losing my progress searching for parts.

The app is good. I can find what I need. Filtering is easy and effective. McMaster has the best web based catalog that I’ve used which I do a lot for work. This app I use for personal stuff. I took a star off because the checkout screen has some bugs. Even if my ship to address is showing it asks me to enter it. I can’t. I have to go back to the home screen then back to the order page to get it to show correctly and work. Same for the credit card entry. I’m using an iPad Pro with newest iOS.

McMaster-Carr is always there to answer your questionseven though it’s not often that you will have a question because their app and website are so neatwell organized and full of and relevant information that you may seek. As someone who is often looking for new ways to do things and finding new materials to work withMcMaster’s descriptions make that a breeze. Any item you view will almost always be described as though you are learning about it for the first time making it very simple to find what you’re looking forwhen you don’t know what you’re looking for is called or looks like! Shipping is also very reasonable and once you have a feel for their rates you will not second guess how much they are going to charge.Thank you McMaster for great service over the years!

I find the app a little clearer to use than their websitebut they treat images as non-zoomable static size. I find myself constantly going back to their web site (another: why does it offer to copy the web link but not also offer to just GO to the web link. Makes what could be a single operation into copyswitch apps to safaricreate a new tabpaste. Just have a 4th button to go there!) so that I can see the exact same informationexcept that when I pinch and zoom on the imageit does.If they wrote this in Xcode like they should havethese changes would be trivial to make. Hope to see them soon.
